Step by Step Method
Step 1
Pour some chile salt into a shallow dish. Wet the rim of a rocks glass with the lime wedge, then dip it into the chile salt to coat the rim. Fill the glass with ice.
Step 2
Place 3 of the cucumber slices in a cocktail shaker and muddle them. Add the gin, Aperol, lime juice, simple syrup, and a large handful of ice, and shake until frosty (about 20 seconds). Strain into the salted glass.
Step 3
Dip one edge of each of the 3 remaining slices of cucumber into the chile salt and use them as a garnish - either on a cocktail pick or on the side of the glass.
